    Entering Into Sikhism: Questions On Reht Maryada

    Hi Danielle I hope you are happy for me to comment based on your blog? If not then please remove When I first arrived in my new city I asked those who knew more than me where I should go and explore. I was told not to go into certain streets in case I run into trouble, but to go to other places...

    Eternal Life And Sikhism

    Ishna Ji, no need to apologise. I wasn't able to turn on the male icon beside the name earlier. I tried various times and just figured it out today, my profile reads "male" if viewed. I am considering to request my name is changed to help reduce this issue as it has been happening since I...

    MUKTI- Different Types And What Gurbani Says

    Chaz Ji It cannot be described but it can be comprehended then described as a singular state i.e. god state. ;) My feeling is we have already been caught up in Maya's divine play. :) Respectfully, Embers.

    MUKTI- Different Types And What Gurbani Says

    I agree with you Kulbir Ji The immersion doesn't mean loss, it is a completeness which was felt before to be an incompleteness. It is a return home. Luckysingh Ji, interesting thread, thank you! Here are some thoughts in reply. A stream runs in only one direction, the destination is...

    Controversial Life Is Easier Without Karma - A Discussion

    Hello Confused Ji, thanks for your consideration.0:) As I see it, it adds to the complication if we are making comparisons, or trying to rebuke one philosophy against another regardless of which one considers to be better. The reason is Buddhism and Theism may always be at loggerheads, so it is...

    Controversial Life Is Easier Without Karma - A Discussion

    Hello Confused Ji I really think you are overthinking all of this. 0:) What is to be gained from it? Are you trying to lead me to the end of suffering or something else?

    Controversial Life Is Easier Without Karma - A Discussion

    Hello Confused Ji Please find answers below questions. Yes, for example Vedanta defines reality in such terms. Phenomena such as thoughts and sense data are relatively real i.e. they appear are real as long as they last. What is the unconditioned by your definition? Please explain. It...

    Fate, Destiny, Pre-Destination, Likhia

    Sat Siri Akaal LuckySingh Ji This is good, I haven't considered Karma to be a part of the illusion explicitly but you are right. If we accept that Karma exists then the Gursikh is living out his past karma which is still yielding results. In other words he or she will still have a body which...

    Fate, Destiny, Pre-Destination, Likhia

    What super posts, LuckySingh Ji! I agree with you, there is something blocking us from putting 2 and 2 together. Every person is struggling or has struggled with this because that which hampers you and it also hampers each person. I see that which hampers us as Maya (ego is a part of Maya)...

    Controversial Life Is Easier Without Karma - A Discussion

    Confused ji I think the conversation is coming to an end, which is fine. Your questions are quoted followed by my answer below, my answer is personal i.e. I am not quoting scripture or being philosophical for the sake of it. I am using my own vocabulary a little here, as I cannot remember...

    Controversial Life Is Easier Without Karma - A Discussion

    Confused Ji Thanks for the continued explanation. Unless a being is still opposed to change through craving, clinging and aversion. Buddhism may address well a person who is undergoing suffering because they cannot get what they want, cannot avoid what they do not want or remain neutral. I...

    Controversial Life Is Easier Without Karma - A Discussion

    Hello Confused Ji Thanks for the reply. I do not understand how the end of Dukkha can imply a continuation of Dukkha? It doesn't make sense to me. If it is because everything is always anicca, anatta and dukkha, then I cannot agree. I cannot agree that a stone lying on the floor is dukkha...
